Redefining Ready! Cohort

A diploma should open doors — not leave students guessing what comes next. The Redefining Ready! Cohort is where district leaders come to build the systems that make college, career, and life readiness more than a goal. It becomes a reality.

Learning Objectives:

You'll dive deep into one of the most consequential questions in K-12 right now: How do we design and scale student pathways that create real postsecondary options? Through virtual sessions and in-person site visits, you'll examine:

• How to build coherent pathways that connect coursework, credentials, and real-world experience
• What strong industry partnerships look like — and how to build and sustain them
• How to embed dual credit and early college into student pathways as a feature, not an afterthought
• What equitable, high-quality work-based learning requires at the systems level
• How to measure readiness in ways that actually reflect where students are headed

This is collaborative, practitioner-driven learning for district leaders who are serious about delivering on the promise of public education — and giving every student a real path forward.
